One known Jasmin speciality contains a considerable proportion of this material in its ‘fruit- preserve-like’ undertones and terminal notes.”

Jean Claude Elena, in his book Diary of a Nose, suggests that in combination with beta-Ionone and fructone this material can produce an effective illusion of the smell of raspberries. He says “Unlike cherries, which have more taste than smell, raspberries are all about smell … Adding cis-3-hexenol gives a sour, green quality, while geraniol will give a taste of lipstick.”
